Background---------------Some political committees report their contributions and expenditures to the IRS under § 527 of the U.S. tax code. The IRS publishes these disclosure forms as a bulk download. This app attempts to make sense of that archive.

The [archive](http://forms.irs.gov/app/pod/dataDownload/dataDownload) is updated every Sunday at 1:00 AM.

Getting started---------------

Install it.

```bash$ pip install django-irs-filings```

Add `irs` to your list of `INSTALLED_APPS` in `settings.py`.

```pythonINSTALLED_APPS = ( ... 'irs', ...)```

Migrate your database.

```bash$ python manage.py migrate irs```

Finally, call the `updateIRS` command. This will download the latest zipped archive from the IRS website, unzip and parse it, and load it into the database.
